if he gets 10% of the republican vote, he'd get about 5% of the general election. he doesn't need to be stopped. this is as silly as the rogue
delegates theory

at least you've moved on from the voter fraud excuse

this place will be something else when the reality becomes final.

ATS will need a "ron paul was robbed" forum just to keep up with it

haha you know so little...so little...yet talk like you know so much.

Rogue delegates theory? alright, that is good, keep thinking that...

Why don't you go back and look at the fake delegate slate flyers printed by the Romney campaign.

Yes yes, Ron Paul doesn't need to be stopped, you keep telling yourself that while the Romney campaign wastes millions to stop Ron Paul when he SHOULD
be saving it for the general election, that is if he was actually the presumed nominee.

If Ron Paul doesn't need to be stopped, you shouldn't even need to be in here wasting your time on someone that supposedly doesn't deserve it.

That's the thing.

Everyone knows Romney has no chance against Obama.
So they actually plan to HAND the election to Obama as a freebie.

That's probably why Romney is blowing all this $$$ like this, just to stop RP from disturbing the status quo.
Not because he wants to actually be president, Obama can do that just fine.

Where is the Federal Election Commission?
Aren't they tasked with making sure people follow the statutes?

If they don't get involved and clamp down on this fraudulent behavior it will prove 100% they are illegitimate and have no jurisdiction or authority
(and for that, the rest of the government apparatus as well).

Romney camp trying to end today's Maine state convention by claiming ballots are bad? Wants postponement too tmrw because he put all his people in
nice hotels and expecting Paul delegates will go home. He is sorely mistaken.

let me get this straight,
romney supporters hand out false information,
then claim the ballots are in error?

I have seen thousands gather to watch Ron Paul, but I don't see anything like that for Romney.
Where are the Romney bumper stickers, the lawn signs? Why do I see all these Ron Paul signs and stickers? I thought he was unpopular.

I like Ron Paul. I do. I agree that he has an enormous, well-connected and motivated group of followers.

But my understanding is he generally has only been holding one or two rallies while campaigning in a state, while other candidates, like Romney often
have several 5, 10, 20 stops in a state at times. My only point is to say that comparing one big rally to the size of several small ones is a bit
misleading. If Romney pulls in 10 campaign stops and has a few hundred at each, is that any different than 2000 people coming to one ron paul
rally?

I don't say that to diminish from the point that paul is popular. He is. And I completely agree that the media and GOP try and diminish his
popularity. That's incredibly obvious to anyone paying attention, even if they dont agree with Paul's politics. But thats just one point I see
repeated a lot that I think needs a bit more context

Only official email from Ron Paul and his website were my sources of information for voting for the delegates. I voted for him and the delegates. Keep
fighting the good fight my friends. We shall emerge victorious

That makes the point for Paul right there. If he wasn't such a threat why go to such lengths? Especially since the media has all but elected Romney.
Romney shouldn't be scared at all if that was true. Besides, in the primaries from here on out it's a two person race. If Paul was only getting
5-10% of the vote that leaves Romney to carry the other 90% and I just don't see that happening. Neither does Romney apparently, which is why the
dirty tricks are coming out of the bag.

I'm a huge Ron Paul supporter, and I certainly believe the media and establishment in general is trying to screw him over, and think he could
potentially have a chance to win it...but what causes you to believe, or what is the proof, that Romney's campaign is doing this stuff? Maybe I missed
something...
